Hello and welcome to my blog "às Voltas no Mundo" or Around the World!
I started my first blog in 2006, when I moved away from my home country, so I could easily tell all about my adventures to my friends. Since then I have never stopped blogging and sharing this little bit of myself is something I really enjoy doing. I am Portuguese but right now I live in the beautiful historical city of Prague, the capital of Czech republic. I started posting only in portuguese, since it helps me practice my mother language (believe me, after almost 10 years living abroad I need it), but since last year's Grow Your Blog party I also started posting in english. I usually post on both languages.
I mostly post about:
1- Places I have visited
I have lived in 4 different countries and I love traveling. In the beginning I did it alone but then I met the most fantastic partner (for everything not just traveling) and it became even more fun to move around. He loves photography and everywhere we go he takes a lot of pictures, which means my blog is full of gorgeous images.

2- Running
I absolutely love running. Running makes me relax, releases the tension in my muscles and allows me to think. I started running half marathons last year and it was fun, but tough. My goal is to run marathons in the future, but I refuse to move on until I feel comfortable with the half distance. This year I'm planning to run 3 half-marathons and I have been training hard to improve my condition.

3- Cooking
I actually started running because I love cooking and eating. I do like to cook healthy food, but I don't say no to a good dessert. I have another blog (here) where I post all the recipes worth sharing, but occasionally I post some links to those recipes here as well.
My not so healthy but super delicious Nachos!
I hope you enjoy my blog and I wish you a happy Glow Your Blog party!!!
